Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for August 05, 2024

He has a very steady hand.

Just wait ’til Scooter grabs him by the seat of his pants and takes him for a spin around the room.

Gregory has been inhaling paint fumes for too many years.

He should get a job where I used to work. The building is a quarter mile long, two double high stories. They have this one little old man who paints the walls, every day. He starts at one end of the facility and over a year or two works his way to the other end. Then starts again. I think this technique could help him.

Good morning Balladeers!

And, given the way the “Art World” is, Gregory will likely soon be lining his pockets…

He’ll probably be able to get a small fortune for it.

People get the wrong impression when Gregory tells them he likes doing lines.

Do a fine mountain range if he took his skill outside what with all the potholes on Ballard St.

Should be popular with those who reminisce about the late 1970s.

too bad his name isn’t Picasso or Dali…could sell it for millions then!

my aged eyes first read this as a congenial relaxed panting style, which didn’t seem the slightest bit unusual for ballard street… ☺

So, when does Gregory start painting happy little trees?

Gregory doesn’t go outside the lines.

Good night, Ballard Dears!

I was always taught: for straighter lines, keep your hand still and move the brush with major muscle groups. Legs are perfect for that
